Greetings, all.
I am working on a project that requires scheduled audio recording. I
know Audio Hijack Pro does this, but I'm wondering if there are
alternatives. Through Google searches I have discovered WireTap and
Amadeus II, and I'm sure there are other packages, but I don't know
their features or availability.
My ultimate solution would be controllable from the command line and
would run in the background, without a GUI front end, which is why I'm
looking at software other than the excellent Audio Hijack Pro.
I would appreciate it if someone here would be kind enough to suggest
some packages I should investigate.
For the curious: the project is to record streaming audio. Think TiVo
for radio. I know I could use the Griffin Radio Shark for this
project, and have considered that, but I would prefer a software-only
solution if possible, as everything I want is available streamed and
I'm not sure the Radio Shark's receiver is strong enough to be used in
my computer room. The idea is to record those streamed shows on my
server, saving the streams as MP3s (or AACs) in a directory on my
server. I have a script that generates an RSS feed based on the MP3
files in a directory, essentially creating a podcast out of a stream.
I'm not going to be "rebroadcasting" these podcasts - this is merely
for personal time/space shifting purposes. And I'm this -><- close to
having it done. :)
Thanks.
Daniel
